Not Just Craft Beer. Great Beer.

Big Storm Brewing Co. is one of the fastest growing independent craft breweries in Florida. Founded in 2012 by Mike Bishop, Big Storm has grown into three separate brewing and taproom facilities: two in the Tampa Bay area and one in Cape Coral. Led by Head Brewer, Joel Moore, Big Storm’s innovative craft beers have received critical acclaim for the past five consecutive years, winning 2016’s Best Florida Beer Championship with their Oktoberfest Marzen Lager. Today, Big Storm is a true pioneer using local ingredients like citrus and wild flower honey, brewing more than 20 different beers, including their popular Arcus Southern Pale Ale, Wavemaker® Amber Ale, Oats in Hose Oatmeal Stout, Tropic Pressure Florida Ale®, and Palm Bender Gulf Coast IPA. Available in most local Publix, Whole Foods, Total Wine and ABC Liquors, Big Storm is not just craft beer, but great beer.
